[Q] elementalx fast charge not working - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Having ripped my hair out trying to gain root on my m7
Thanks to the kind member who pointed me in the right direction
I now have another problem
The whole reason I rooted was to install elementalx to enable fast charge as I have a power jacket that is rated at 1a output but was getting slow charge notification
I've now roote,d installed the elementalx kernal enabled fast charge
but I'm still getting the slow charge warning triangle.
I'm running stock lollipop 5.0.2
Am I doing something wrong? As nothing has improved in regards fast charge its still as slow as before with warning

Fast charge does not increase the charge rate of an A/C charger.
It simply allows the device to charge at A/C charger speeds while connected to a PC via USB.

Thanks
I understand that
Is there no way to remove the slow charge warning triangle that sits permanently in the notification bar?,

[Q] USB Failing?

hello all,
Has anyone experienced this? Is the USB port failing or bad?
I plug my phone into AC charger. Most often the light goes on and it begins charging. Sometimes it stops charging immediately. Sometimes it will charge for a little while then stop charging. Mostly it will charge until I unlock it again then it will stop charging. I find that once it stops charging there is no one way to get it back. Sometimes its unplugging and replugging, sometimes its just waiting until it kicks back in.
I have replaced the AC charger, changed the plug im using and changed the power strip.
Weird thing is I have not noticed this with USB charging through the PC (however that charging is slower than my rate of use, so I just get less decrease).
Has anyone seen this? Is my USB port shot? Time to get a new phone?
thanks
P.S. - Used to be Rooted MIUI, now I am back to stock FRG83 w/ stock Recovery, Kernel & Radio....this has happened since I was Rooted for the past two weeks.
Any unusual heat, when you're charging?
No. And this is a new thing that started when I started using MIUI. But has not left even after a full wipe and PASSIMG install.

Limited/slow battery charging speed on cyanogenmod

Hello,
I used for a while stock Google play edition rom and then bought a new charger thats really capable of charging 2A (even measured with ampere app). Then I wanted to use cyanogenmod (12.1) and after installation I found out that I can't charge it with the same speed but 700-800mA thats. So I was wondering if it is a system or kernel limitation? Is there anyway to get it to work properly? Researched about custom kernels that force fast charging but then I'm unable to transfer data.
Same issue with Cm12.1, was good with ARHD and Insertcoin. Did you try enable fast charging ?
Fast charge option in some kernels doesn't have anything to do with chargers. It gives you faster charging when you plug your phone to a computer or laptop

Charging Issue: Charging Slowly from USB, Charging Normal from Wireless Qi

Hi everyone, so my issue I currently have with my Nexus 6 is as follows:
Device Details: Nexus 6, rooted, running CM13, Xposed Framework installed
Charging from USB: shows "charging slowly" message on lockscreen. Ampere shows an average of about 200mA, regardless of type of charger. Tried several QuickCharger adapters and a regular adapter, as well as several different cables to the same result. When connecting to a PC via USB, it shows the same charging power, however my laptop is not recognizing that the device has been plugged in.
Charging Wirelessly: charges normal as it always had, showing a average of about 500-700mA.
The issue occurred suddenly while I was out hiking and attempting to charge via a QuickCharge capable portable battery. The previous day it was charging as it always has.
All signs point to a damaged micro USB port on my Nexus 6, but wondering if there could be any other possible causes. I'm hesitant to try a factory reset to troubleshoot it as a software issue since I have no way of connecting it to my PC to re-root and re-flash CM if that doesn't fix the issue.
If it is the micro USB port as I think, any suggestions on how to remedy this? I'm used to using my device heavily everyday and charging it with a QuickCharger as needed, so this slow charging is a significant issue right now.
Thanks for any help!
your phone charges at differing speeds at differing parts of its charging cycle. and on top of that, charging via usb instead of wall charger will carge your phone at a much slower rate. that said, we also have a "usb fastcharge" option included in many kernels/custom roms. but you also have to know that fastcharge doesnt work with every usb port that you can plug into. it only will work with certain usb ports.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. When I said "Charging via USB" I just mean through the phone's microUSB port. Regardless of whether it was plugged into a wall charger(with or without QuickCharge 2.0) or my laptop or a portable battery, or a QuickCharge car charger, I was getting the same charge rate and message showing "charging slowly", much slower than wireless charge rate which showed the normal "charging" message. The Qualcomm QuickCharge 2.0 using the provided Motorola Supercharger or my QuickCharge 2.0 capable portable battery has always worked great prior to this issue.

ok, because the included "fastcharge" is only for usb charging. but regular charging still depends on where in the charging cycle you were. for example, at 92 itll charge at a much slower rate than at 50. what battery percent where you at when you noticed?

Initially very low, under 15%. Was attempting to charge with a QC2.0 portable battery, but the device was draining quicker than it was charging. When I got home, I attempted the Motorola "Turbocharger" wall charger and got the same rate. So I put it on the wireless charger, and as it charged, I kept testing the wall charger every 20% or so, getting the same slow charge rate.
The bottom line is really that the Wireless Qi charging is functioning properly as it always has, but any "plugged-in" type charging is charging at an extremely slow rate, no matter what type of charger, no matter what % the battery is at.

odd! it could be a software issue or just a derp. have you tried rebooting? im one of the few that i know with a broken usb on my n6. and it charges slower. it used to charge at about 2400mV, now it charges at 800mV max. now that its completely broken, i cant charge it via a usb anymore, now i charge it wirelessly, which is at about 800mV max as well. anyways, try a reboot, or reflashing your software first, before doing anything extreme.

Yea I've tried rebooting like 20 times lol. Also tried doing a CM nightly software update. I'll see if reflashing will do the trick. Any suggestion on reflashing from the device? I've always used Nexus Root Toolkit and did it from my PC.
If that doesn't work, guess I'm stuck with wireless charging too. Thanks for your help!

you can flash cm via twrp recovery on your phone, without a computer. oh, and my work buddies are still in shock that my n6 wirelessly charges.. they both have iphone 6s

Phone gets really warm on Samsung fast wireless charger

Hi
I just got a Note 5 and a fast Samsung fast wireless charger stand. Everything looks good except for the fact that the phone gets quite warm after 100% (when the light turns green). The highest temperature it has hit is 43 C. Normally it would hover around 41-42 C. This means that the phone battery would be subjected to such heat around 4 hours every night. Should I worry about this? I live in Singapore.
Thank you.
please share info about your phone :
stock or custom rom (which?)
did u install battery app??
do u have this problem when connect usb cable directly to your phone (fast charge )?
if in your note 5 put on case or other things put it off and test
note 5 will be warm in fast charge until 90 % (not 100% - it's problem)
i suggest if it possible work turn off fast charge when put your phone in charge in night
or reset your phone and test again.

Stock ROM. Marshmallow 6.0.1.
No battery app. Fast charge via cable works awesomely.
It still gets warm even without the case. I tried resetting my phone, and it's ok. It's the same for normal wireless charging.
So 42 degree Celsius is bad?
Anyway with my new case I need to enable daydream to make sure that the wireless charging doesn't stop after the screen turns off. I set my daydream picture as a solid plain black picture. So by right this shouldn't cause any damage to the screen right? Only the screen touch sensors are working overnight.
My stock 64 gb N920T on MM routinely gets to ~37.5 C (99.5 F) while using the OEM charger with fast charging turned off. It's gotten as high as 39.5 C (103.1 F), which was the first time I took readings using the GSAM Battery Monitor Pro app.
I wouldn't be surprised if the wireless fast charger pushes the temps past 43 C (109.4 F).

Question about fast charging on the Note 9

Hi...
For a while now I've had a problem with my Note 9 only displaying that it is regular charging when plugged into my fast charger plug and cable. I tried a numbr of troubleshooting steps from restarting, cleaning the port, trying safe mode, buying replacement fast charger and cable, factory settings, rooting but it still only showed as cable charging so I became convinced it was a physical problem with the port. Wireless fast charging continues to work as it should.
I recently installed AccuBattery and when plugged into my fast charger/cable, the charge current completely fills the the green bar to between 1800-2000 mA so now I'm beginning to wonder whether fast charging is working ok, but the phone is reporting it incorrectly.
Does anyone else know what kind of charge current the Note 9 should have when cable fast charging please? Also, just out of curiosity, what should it be when wirelessly fast charging too please?
Thanks for any help...

I know this is ridiculous question. Did you enable it in battery setting?

I started charging at 25%. With screen on I got 2700mah.
I left my phone off for 15 mins and stayed at that 2700mah average.
When I turned my phone screen on, I had 45% but screen on charge dropped to 1000mah.
If you look at the bottom of my screenshot, it explains why you need to turn your screen off to get accurate fast charge Numbers. Your phone might throttle the screen on charge if a certain criteria is met.
Once again. Did you enable it in the settings?
I am eagerly awaiting your response... [emoji3]

Thanks for the reply.
Hmmm the numbers you get do seem to suggest there is an issue with my phone. The screen off speeds are around the same as screen on.
Samsung quoted about £10,000,000 to repair as it's rooted and they have to replace the entire board to satisfy their warranty terms.
May have a go at replacing the charging port myself.
Thanks again :good:

I don't use fast charging, ever. So that's probably why my port still works. I have gotten so much dirt in it and cleaned it out it isn't even funny. So I'm less 6 to believe that fast charging is what ruins the port not debris.
A lot of people who use fast charging have the same issue as you-,it burns out the port.
Honestly, my advice is to love with fast charging over wireless and not spend a billion dollars replacing the port. Wait until it's time to replace the battery in a year or two and do it then. Fast charging over cable only saves you 30-40 minutes. I can charge and do charge my phone normally and it only takes around an hour and 40 minutes.
